Most of us by now have encountered the issues with the RTM SQL Server 2008 installation media...
Therefore some of us have not.
In the interest of sating my (perhaps irrational) curiosity, would you care to provide a summary or link to the issues in question? Thanks.
Regardless of that, this is a good introduction to slipstreaming. Thanks!
Remember also, slipstreaming the SP\CU will help decrease the deployment time for the SQL Server instance.
There are quite a few issues to be honest, the most notable ones are detailed at the following links
